NoEXIST

The question I didn't found the answer if we can build sort of tourism arctic vehicle or we are heavily interested on cranes, mobile bases or something?

Thanks! My list is also a bit different from the jury results. But this contest is still full of great models!

High quality instruction is now available on rebrickable for free! https://reb.li/m/155067 Random instruction page:

Actually It has over 100 parts only for engine

How much parts has your models guys? Mine is only 46 parts less than original set!

It's not that easy to turn the wheels as in original set for example, but its okay knowing which wheels were used. These are really soft and wide:) That's true, I'll use just a soft axle in nose of the car for instruction. I'm also not the biggest fan of that technique but I have no idea how to replace these panels in smaller scale...

Entry post is done and there are some photos And the video, but still waiting for better quality to be uploaded...

42039 24 Hour Race Car Features: - steering system (removable HoG) - full independent suspension - engine cover opening - openable doors Side non set feature - modular building sequence High quality instructions soon...

Let's make it a surprise for entry photoshoot :)

Let's say I'm done with the model. Stickers in original size seems too big to cut them. Even if I only leave logos, so... It has engine cover open mechanism, but it's also easy to remove completely

I rather choose without stickers at all As long as I can cut them, I don't need the color scheme changes :)

Another question about stickers - can I print original sheet of stickers and use it? I'm not really able to order it before deadline

I agree with that, there is a lot of really cool models participating. And I'm still not sure if I do that only for fun or not:)

I understood this like my model won't get much points for this criteria, but can participate

Already looking at this, the only question missing if I can print original sticker sheet myself. Well, I was talking about color change in the beginning of the topic and have seen no problem with changing it in the rules. But you are definitely true at this point. Also I have some time to maybe even change my entry with another set because I got the idea a little lately... There's no 8258 shirking so far as I can see😅

I'm going with red because bright green is not even possible, and for lime I needed ~250€ to get everything, so I left that idea Oh really? Didn't notice it's against the rules, then cutting... Also won't use the color change because it won't fit the red color of parts, so just cutting

So all the stickers are from that original set sheet? That's cool you was able to use them in the model with smaller scale!

Still waiting for a few parts to build near finish looking model. But I tried to change sticker list a little Some of them definitely need scale change to be applied to the car

Oh, I thought construction requires some pin connections in there... It's a good idea then. The door is interesting point, because it isn't openable in the set and they made longer cab than you wait to see on a tow truck. If we talk about proportions and seat position, it seems okay, but the door may be a little shorter. But I can say nothing about it because I don't know much about yellow panels😅

The fact that this frame fit there is a complete coincidence, didn't even think about using it😅 But it's a great bending strength booster

I think that if you use liftarms mixed with connectors it will look discontinuous, while a connector assembly looks more consistent

I hope it worth it:) Actually like this little truck! You made a good job replicating the original set!

Thank you!

This is my third attempt to make this truck. It is my favorite truck, so even after 2 years I'm having new ideas to improve it! First version (2021) It all started in the 2021 summer and came out like this: It had bunch of functions as steering, fake I6 engine, tilting cab, openable doors and working 5th wheel Second version (2022) Next one was in 2022 autumn, it was all about appearance improvements and had a little less functions (fake engine, tilting cab) But it has 2 different bumper options Third version (2023) And there comes a lastest version, finally motorized. This one was planned as more interesting version. I also tried to put here an air compressor for tripper trailer. But after I tried I understood it wasn't really good idea. That's how it lost that function... But still came out as a good semi. More photos here: https://bricksafe.com/pages/grs_bricks/man-tgx-2023v There is test drive video that shows how it drives with 1,5kg load in trailer: Transmission from the truck Instructions There is two instructions available: 2021 version truck https://reb.li/m/90376 2022 version truck https://reb.li/m/124637 I also will add appearance updates of 2023 version to the rebrickable post as an .io file

Yep, they are I think I will, but I'm not sure it will happen before the end of this contest
